Hi Jill, I'm in central VA, north of Charlottesville, west of DC. Love it here next to Shenandoah Natl. Park. Hope you will be happy in your new home. The QB is just wonderful. Such nice people--and such great ideas. I've been sewing since I was a kid and quilting since the 80s. Methods are a lot different now and I love the stimulation I get here on the QB. Do have a lot of "why didn't I think of that moments". Enjoy! Sally
